VIDEO: Sideline Camera Caught A Perfectly-Timed Snapshot Of WNBA Star Kelsey Plum During Team USA’s Win vs. Japan At The Paris Olympics

The Team USA women’s basketball team began their Paris Olympics journey with a commanding victory over Japan. This opening-game win was particularly significant for Kelsey Plum, part of the U.S. women’s 3×3 team that won gold at the Tokyo Games.

While Plum’s performance on the court was impressive, her hilarious pose during the game caught the most attention. After being hit and falling to the floor, which resulted in a foul on Japan’s Stephanie Mawuli, Plum quickly regained her composure. She sat on the floor and, with a big smile, flashed a peace sign with her fingers.

The USA women’s basketball team is trying to secure their eighth consecutive Olympic gold medal. This game against Japan was a rematch of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics final, where the USA triumphed. Team USA dominated Japan in this latest contest with a 102-76 victory.

A’ja Wilson led the team with 24 points, 13 rebounds, and four blocks. Kelsey Plum, who shared a bold belief in Wilson, contributed 11 points. The USA defeated Japan 90-75 in their previous encounter to claim their seventh consecutive gold medal.
